drained wrong fluid for 07 zx6r

i was getting ready to do a coolant flush for a 07 zx6r and i drained the wrong fluid.. i undid what i thought was the coolant bolt and it wasnt... it was pink i belive.. and when i go around 45+ the handle bars pretty much lock tight and i can only turn by leaning and my handlebars stay stiff.. so im assuming its like power steering fluid or something..wondering what fluid it is and how the check and change that fluid...p.s. no stabilizer

Is this a joke? First coolant service is after 3 years. Probally drained your blinker fluid, you need working blinkers to make turns.

07's came with power steering fluid? Hmmmmm, interesting.


What I want to know is that if you did drain the coolant (Japanese coolant is red btw) what did you refill and what did you refill it with?
